    Reading Time: < 1 minute

    I’m always looking for good books about blogging and free books is even better. The Blog Business Book: How To Start A Blog And Turn It Into A Six Figure Online Business is currently free for Kindle. Here’s the description from Amazon:

    The Blog Business Book is your complete guide to starting a blog from scratch (for less then $50) and turning it into a profitable online business.

    I started blogging back in 2008. The problem is I had no idea what I was doing. After struggling for years to get traffic and make money from my blog, I finally figured it out.

    Then, just to test my strategies, I started a brand new blog in October, 2011. Just 9 months later, that site was getting over 100,000 visitors a month and earning a full-time income. How did I do it?

    Let this book be your guide to a profitable blog!
